For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg to the custard mixture. Be careful not to overbake the pie, as this can result in a dry or cracked filling. If the crust edges are browning too quickly, you can cover them with foil during the last few minutes of baking. The cooled pie can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
